Hi Felix,
The intent is to include the data with the regular results.
If I just needed to log to a file (jmeter.log or otherwise), we wouldn't be
having this discussion :)
In this particular case the header contains information about where the
request was handled, there is a transparent load balancer in front of the
service and sub-results may be handled by a different host/data center
depending on the URL.
This data will be used to confirm the load balancing is working as expected
and to aid any potentially required debugging.
There is also a theoretical question here about logging arbitrary data that
may change per sample/sub-sample to the Jmeter results file.
I did think about maybe writing this header data to a separate file, but
then I would still need a way to create a log some sort of identifier in
the results log to correlate the two logs ...
Cheers,
Owen
